Silver Banksian Medal for a very pleasing exhibit of Dendrobiums, 
including nobile Harefield Hall, n. Berkeley’s var., n. F. W. Moore, and n. 
Hardyana, all well-flowered. Odontoglossum Marjorie carried a spike of 
seven flowers, with reddish-brown blotching, and O. crispum was represented 
by an excellent variety of the home-raised type. Cattleya Thora bore a 
flower of fine shape, of a pleasing rose colour, with the throat golden- 
yellow. Sophronitis hybrids were well represented by Sic. Niobe, and Ble. 
Muriel was in every way a fine showy hybrid.

x Miranda), with an erect spike of three large flowers, emerald green in 
-colour, with reddish-crimson markings on the lip.

speciosum fusiforme, carrying six many-flowered spikes, also Ccelia macros-

rose-purple, with a dark centre to the lip.

‘the brightly-coloured Lelia Cowanii, Dendrobium aureum, with numerous
